Another wonderful “spring” day in Chicagoland with temps in the 40′s, however it was an awesome day for Maritza and Julio to begin their new life together…..….It seems like it’s becoming more and more rare for a bride to wear a full vail, however I think it adds a really cool touch, especially to the pictures. Maybe I’m just old-fashioned…..….These two couldn’t wait for the Bride to arrive!………..I love it when the Bride sneaks a peek at her Groom during the ceremony. You’re supposed to be serious and focus on the prayers and blessing being bestowed upon you, but some Bride’s just can’t resist……….When do we get to eat the wedding cake…….….Maybe if I hide in here long enough I won’t have to have my picture taken anymore……….Okay time to roll, and these two decided to roll in style. “Pardon me Messieur, but would you happen to have any Grey Poupon?”……..…..”But of Course!”…….….One more kiss for the crowd at the church, and it’s off for some more pictures and then the reception…….…..It was very overcast most of the day, however wouldn’t you know that as soon as their marriage was official, the sun decided to appear and help us out with some additional light for their portraits……..…..How can you not be happy on your wedding day?…….….One last portrait before getting ready to start the party………..No explanation necessary…….….And then things got interesting. I’ve never seen a group of single guys…….…..go after the Bride’s garter with this much enthusiasm…..….the bridal party at this wedding showed off some killer moves on the dance floor…..…..And one last kiss from the happy couple at the end of the night. Congratulations, and have a wonderful time on your honeymoon!
